Charlotte Skene-Catling converted an old dairy into a five bedroom home with a bathing pool. I like the way the wood exterior references traditional barns but allows a tremendous amount of light into the house.

'The Chair' by Philippe Malouin, designed for Scirocco Studios, recently touring the UK. It marked the launch of the new VW Scirocco and the exhibition pieces were inspired by how the car has evolved over the years.

Design House Stockholm's Pipette Oil & Vinegar Bottles by Camilla Kropp bring out the mad scientist in us all ~ and are by no means only for oil and vinegar, these would be just as fun for soy sauce, etc!

Alessi Miniatures ~ seeing them in context of the originals in the shop window make them far more fun than most pics online... can't you see using the starck citrus squeezer for designer kumquat juice shots?
